This image from Reddit builds the case that a tank design for Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances appears quite similar to a Games Workshop-designed tank from the Warhammer 40K series. Games Workshop is known for fiercely defending its intellectual property rights, so there is rampant speculation that if this claim turns out to be valid, legal action is likely to follow.

Feel free to do some research, GW is crazy nutty about anything relating to this. Think of the worst company you can imagine in terms of going after fans for doing anything, and GW is worse. They are notorious enough that Blue mentions it in the blurb.

Well, cite? It seems kind of odd to me that they would shut down distributors, since those are their customers. But the two examples you mentioned before hardly sound evil.

As far as the worst, I think that would be Fox, who Blue regularly uses in the verb form for cease-and-desists, and who shut down the Aliens TC for DOOM and other mods way back in the day, and TSR, who did cease-and-desist their own fansites when user sites on the Internet were still kind of a new thing.

GW is far worse than that. They've done that before and more. They don't care if you are their customer, they even talk on their homepage about how they are "HAPPY to spend money" going after you.
